for the new bridgestone series, i've run the RE-050A pole positions, the RE-960AS, and currently, the RE-01R. the RE-050APP's are really good. their quiet, very sticky, pretty good in the rain, and FAR outlast their 140 treadwear rating. they still go quickly, but they last about twice as long as any other 140 i've tried. i really like those tires; crisp feeling, too.

now the RE-01R is a whole nother ball of wax.....strangest tire i've ever driven on. once you get used to them, they're FAST.....
